[Prior Art] ----- w ^ a j τ soil less, δ δ δ 匕 匕 」 ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” It will not disappear after the power, so it has become a memory component widely used in personal computer 3 electronic equipment. A typical electrically erasable and programmable read-only memory system uses a doped multi-turn 矽 to create a floating gate and a control gate (c〇ntr Gate). When the memory is programmed (Pr〇gram), the injected floating gate # electrons are evenly distributed throughout the polysilicon floating gate layer. However, when there is a defect in the penetrating layer under the polycrystalline slab floating layer, it is easy to cause leakage current of the component and affect the reliability of the component. 3 “'In order to solve the problem that the eraser can read the memory device, the drain arm=set the second material is to use a charge storage fine.” ^曰^ Placement pole' The material of the charge storage layer is, for example, nitride. Xi. ^ The charge storage layer usually has a layer of oxidized oxide on the upper and lower sides to form a (Sta^cked^^ /, EEPROM il 矽 矽 矽 / 矽 矽 / 矽 (SONOS) memory with this stack of gate structure Apricot application" 4: On the control pole and source/drain region of this tl piece for stylization 5 8 1285411, 99twf.doc/g, when the channel area is close to the secret zone, hot electrons will be generated. In the human charge storage layer, since the nitrogen cut has a hostile electron, @ this, the electrons in the charge storage layer are not evenly distributed throughout the charge storage layer, but are collected in a local area of the charge storage layer. Since the electrons injected into the electrical storage layer only hit the local _ domain, the sensitivity of the defects in the oxide layer is small. The leakage current of the component is less likely to occur. However, the stacked gate is located on the surface of the substrate. The planar SONOs memory has the problem that it cannot be programmed/read at the same time, and the same problem also occurs in the vertical structure SONOS memory proposed by Micro Technology in U.S. Patent No. 8,535,78. In view of this, this The purpose of the present invention is to provide a non-volatile memory unit that can simultaneously program/read/erase two memory cells of a memory unit. Another object of the present invention is to provide a non-volatile The memory matrix J has self-aligned word lines, source lines and drain regions. It is still another object of the present invention to provide a method for fabricating a non-volatile memory array, which can simplify the process. A further object is to provide a method for operating a non-volatile memory, which can operate the memory unit more easily. The present invention provides a non-volatile memory unit comprising a substrate, an i-conductor layer, an electrical storage layer, a first doped region, two second doped regions, a strip first wire and a second wire. wherein the substrate has a trench, and the conductor layer is disposed in the trench and is in the trench The direction 12854 layer is disposed between the conductor layer and the substrate.
